429. The Night of the Witch Comes(1/2)
Naturally, Dorothy, whose main consciousness had returned to her body and didn't even bother to check her memory bank, knew about being stabbed in the back by her avatar.
The otaku witch who jumped up from the bed looked at the time and found that it was already half an hour later than usual. She quickly got up, quickly changed clothes and freshened up, and then came to the living room. At a glance, she saw the person who had already sat down.
A pure white figure waiting at the dining table.
"Good morning, Sofilia."
She greeted her roommate and then walked straight to the kitchen. However, when passing by the dining table, she "accidentally" dropped a document from her pocket.
"It's getting late, Miss. You are already thirty-four minutes and eight seconds slower than usual."
Sophilia's answer was still cold, while the pure white witch looked at the document that happened to fall at her feet, and then looked at her eldest lady speechlessly.
Naturally, she knew very well that with her eldest daughter's seemingly lazy but actually extremely disciplined schedule, it was impossible for her to stay in bed, so there was certainly a reason for her "oversleeping" today.
As for the reason, it was most likely that he was going to perform the task of the Tribunal at night.
Thinking of the identity of the eldest lady, the pure white witch made a reasonable guess.
It was also because of this that she did not directly knock on the door to tell the eldest lady to wake up, but waited patiently here.
But the wait lasted only half an hour, which really made her a little worried. After all, being a judge was not a safe job, and such sudden lateness was often not a good sign.
Therefore, Sofilia was really restless while waiting for the past half hour. If the eldest lady hadn't "got up" after waiting another five minutes, she might really be unable to resist knocking on the door to check the situation.
Fortunately, just when her patience was about to reach its limit, she heard the sound of the eldest lady's door. Suddenly, the pure white witch's heart dropped, and she quickly picked up today's Little Witch Daily at her hand.
She began to pretend that she had been reading the newspaper calmly.
Although she almost held the newspaper upside down in her desperation.
"Miss, you dropped something."
Sophilia did not go to get the document, but directly reminded her.
Although she also understood that the eldest lady had deliberately "dropped" it, the pure white witch still didn't want to pick it up. After all, this would not be good for the eldest lady's future.
As a judge, engaging in malpractice for personal gain and leaking secrets are both serious crimes. The eldest lady is different from me and has a bright future. There is no need to destroy her future just for this matter.
In response to this, Dorothy, who had already come to the kitchen to put on her beloved pink rabbit apron and was thinking about the ultimate problem of what to eat today, felt a little helpless when she heard this.
It's really uncomfortable to feel like both of them know that the other person already knows their secret, but they can't show it openly.
But she had no intention of taking back the document.
"It was originally prepared for you, and this one fell just right."
The otaku witch replied.
It’s not like she really has no clues. As a witch who just wants to live her own life, Dorothy is very law-abiding. It’s impossible for her to violate the injunction of the Inquisition, even if it’s really confidential things.
It was Sofilia who asked her for something that she couldn't even give.
After all, it is the basic professional ethics to do what one does and love what one does. Even if she becomes the Inquisitor for Sophilia, it does not mean that she can betray the Inquisition for Sophilia.
No matter how much she cares about her family, it is only her own business. She can do many things for Sophilia, but they do not include sacrificing everyone's interests and "helping" with the secrets of the race behind her and countless compatriots.
She couldn't accept what her family was doing.
There is no reason in this world to "sacrifice" someone else's things.
What was in that document was not some secret that could not be leaked. It was just information about the Angel Mission that she had compiled herself, especially the information about Michael, the Seraph, and the twelve Cherubim who had just participated in the war chess game.
.
The witch world is not very welcoming to the arrival of this angel envoy, so naturally it doesn't matter whether it is kept secret or not. They are eager for someone to come and make trouble for these angels, and it is best to force them to leave voluntarily.
There are only two days left before Witch Night, and since Witch Night has become a competition, it is very important to obtain information about the opponents in advance.
Dorothy knows that Sophilia attaches great importance to this Witch's Night, and she really wants a certain prize from this Witch's Night, so this information about the angels should be very helpful to her.
Therefore, the otaku witch thought of giving this information to her.
As for why you didn't hand it over directly, but deliberately "dropped it" like this?
Isn't this inconvenient for a showdown? Dorothy couldn't explain the source of this information until she could show off her identity as an inquisitor.
Although with Sophilia's intelligence and emotional intelligence, she would not actually ask about the source of this information.
Sure enough, after hearing the eldest lady's words, the pure white witch thought for a while and said nothing more. She just hooked her fingers, and the invisible magic power made the documents on the ground fly into her hands automatically.
When Dorothy saw this, she lamented that magic was so convenient and elegant, perfectly solving the so-called problem of "if a lady accidentally drops something on the ground, how can she pick it up gracefully and gracefully?"
Bullshit problem.
Seeing that the roommate lady really didn't ask about the source of this information, the otaku witch breathed a sigh of relief.
It's rare to be confused, which is also an advantage.
She just likes Sophia, who has a high emotional intelligence and never asks anything that shouldn't be asked. It will always be so relaxed and comfortable to get along with such a person. After all, you don't need to face endless questioning or even questioning.
During interrogation, there is no need to rack your brains and think of various reasons to explain.
And this is also the reason why the two people's views are obviously not very compatible, and they still dislike each other on many issues, but they still live harmoniously under the same roof.
It's so comfortable to deal with smart people.
"Well, let's have a good meal today."
Dorothy, who was in a good mood, hummed a little tune and used her fingers as a wand to direct various kitchen utensils in the kitchen and started to get busy.
For breakfast, I naturally want to eat something lighter. I have shredded sea dragon pork porridge with some pickles pickled by the hell magic plant, and a cage of crab roe from the Yunhai Paradise Crab to make two cages of soup dumplings. It is enough for a simple meal.
On the other side, Sophilia, who was checking the information, didn't say much on the surface and didn't have much expression on her face, but the pure white witch was not so calm inside.
After all, she only told the eldest lady last night that the rules of Witch Night had changed and that they might have to fight against the angels. But why did the eldest lady directly send the information about the Angel Mission to her after only one night had passed?
On hand.
And this is not just simple information. The tactical style of Seraph Michael, the specialties of each of the twelve angels under her command, commonly used attack moves, etc. are all clearly written.
It's as if you just fought with those angels. Miss, what did you do to that group of angels last night?
And how efficient is this? Are all the judges so powerful?
Sophilia couldn't help but have questions popping up in her heart.
But as soon as this idea came up, the pure white witch herself was almost amused.
The most powerful one is not the judge of the Tribunal, but the eldest lady of the family. If any judge could be so efficient, the world of witches would have taken off long ago.
After carefully reading the information, the holy flame in Sophilia's hand ignited, burning all the information, and after using the power of fate to deal with some traces, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the eldest lady said it was not a secret, she was still cautious and used to it. She didn't want to cause any trouble to the eldest lady because of herself.
After doing all this, the pure white witch picked up the "Little Witch Daily" written by the big-mouthed crows in the news agency and started reading it again. Although she looked at it, she inadvertently looked at the man who was there.
The busy figure in the kitchen is gone.
For a moment, Sophilia felt a little complicated.
It had only been two months since she had been living with the eldest lady. She had always been alone and thought that she would always live alone. She didn't know when she had become accustomed to living together like this. This was very wrong.
The pure white witch subconsciously felt a little awkward. She wanted to reflect on and strengthen her original belief that "this is just the teacher's task, and the eldest lady and I will never get along." However, there was no way. The aroma coming from the kitchen disturbed her again.
her introspection.
"Well, after I finish this meal, I reflect on it. It's definitely not that I've given in. It's just that the meal is really delicious."
Sofilia, who was still pretending to read the newspaper, thought so in her heart.
"Okay, here comes the seafood porridge. Eat it while it's hot."
After a long time, Dorothy finished cooking and served the delicious breakfast to the table.
...Two witches enjoying delicious food...
The next two days were surprisingly peaceful and nothing happened.
Sophilia still goes to the Student Union on time every day to go to work, and then gets off work on time. However, the student president does not go back to the Shining Tower as soon as she gets off work as before, but goes directly to the Witch's House.
The club is stationed and participate in some club activities.
Of course, it is said to be an activity, but in fact it is all about eating, drinking and having fun. After all, this newly established construction club has still not been able to open its doors.
It's so funny that I can't get any business orders at all.
Dorothy was very troubled by this, and a little angry. There were too many people who didn't know the goods these days, and no one recognized a genius earthwork witch like her. This shows that the quality of this year's customers is not very good.
Since they had nothing to do, they simply started renovating the club's residence.
Everyone selected their own treehouse room and then began to decorate the room how they like.
Anyway, each room was designed independently, and Dorothy was happily working as a ruthless furniture maker. Because she was so busy, she didn't even use alchemy to be lazy, but became a rare soul party, picking up furniture.
I returned to the carpentry skills I learned while making figurines in my previous life.
Well, handmade furniture made bit by bit by hand has a soul and contains the spirit of craftsmanship, which will definitely make the user feel more at home.
Whether it's true or not, Dorothy herself, the producer, doesn't have any feelings about it anyway.
Although this is a magical world, there is indeed the possibility of dead objects channeling souls, such as Dorothy's staff Buster, but generally speaking, items made of spiritual materials have a higher probability of channeling spirits.
